1968 Dodge Coronet. Started life as a fleet car, 225 slant 6 with a 3 speed on the column. Manual steering and brakes. Radio delete. I still have the original motor and trans (engine seized). The car still has the clutch pedal in it. This car had been sitting for at least 20 years before I got it. I always wanted a post 68 Coronet, but I have other projects now so life must move on.

Since I have done so much to this car, I will probably forget somethings but I will do my best. I started by pulling the /6 and K-member out. Replace K-member with V8. All new front end (upper and lower control arm bushings, ball joints, tie rods, pitman, idler, strut rod bushings. Drums turned, new shoes, wheel cylinders, rubber lines, hardware and adjusters. Grease it all, back together. New master cylinder. 8.75 rear, 3.23 sure-grip, new axle seals, new wheel cylinders, shoes, drums turned, hardware and adjusters. All 4 new shocks. New gas tank and sender (sender does not read the most accurate, but gauge does work) New 3/8ths line from tank to pump. New aluminium radiator, water pump, trans cooler. All new drive line with big 1350 solid Spicer u-joints. New steering column. I think that about covers it for chassis.

1974 cast crank 440 out of a motor home. No idea on mileage. The motor was rebuilt at some time, guessing not long before I got it. I changed heads to 516 closed chambers with a 1.74 exhaust valve. Double roller timing chain. Cam is a 335 HP 383 Mopar "purple shaft" cam. .450/.458 lift (tiny, I know). Torker intake. Heddman headers with a 3 inch Hooker Aerochamber exhaust. Engine has 75 psi oil pressure when cold, 45 psi warm. Cranking compression is 124-128psi. Good solid motor. Has a Moroso deep sump pan that has seen better days. Trans is a fully rebuilt 727 with a full manual forward pattern valve body. Deep trans pan with drain plug.

Body of the car is rough. Needs body work on every panel. The way it sits now it has NO bondo at all in it. I sanded the car all the way to bare metal and shot over it in a sealer primer. If you want some more detailed photos, I will try and get all of the major stuff and e-mail it to you. I would recommend doing rear quarters but you can probably just patch. Needs a trunk floor. All frame and floor boards are 100% rock solid. All glass is there. New windshield. New heater core. All lights and dash lights work. Factory temp gauge does not work. Speedo has new cable and works great. All interior is shot. I do have the back seat. I do have the dash surround and glove box door and ash tray. I do NOT have the radio delete plate. I have the window moldings and chrome trim. I have a Coronet 500 grill and bezels. I have all the marker lights and the "CORONET" and "DODGE" lettering for the quarters and tail section. I do have a rear bumper, but it is pretty much junk.

That is about all I can think of right now. I have all the reciepts for everything I have done and bought. If you have questions feel free to ask. I am not desperate to sell this car. I will not reveal the reserve. Buyer is responsible for shipping. Car would drive cross country if you didn't mind it loud and drafty :)

Once again, ask all the questions you want.

FCA CEO Mike Manley will run Americas for Stellantis after PSA merger

Sun, Dec 20 2020

DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will run operations in the Americas when his company merges with FranceÂ’s PSA Peugeot early next year. FCA Chairman John Elkann announced ManleyÂ’s new post on Friday in a letter to employees. ManleyÂ’s role in the merged company had been a mystery. PSA CEO Carlos Tavares will run the overall company, to be named Stellantis. Shareholders of both companies will vote on the merger Jan. 4 to seal the deal creating the worldÂ’s fourth-largest automaker. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of March. PSA will get six seats on the new companyÂ’s 11-member board, which will be chaired by Elkann. The Americas, especially the U.S., are key to the new companyÂ’s success. Fiat ChryslerÂ’s Jeep and Ram brands are highly profitable, and Tavares has long wanted to sell PSA vehicles in the U.S. Manley has been the Italian-American automakerÂ’s CEO for 2 1/2 years, taking over when Sergio Marchionne died in 2018. Stellantis will have the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, just behind Volkswagen, the Renault-Nissan alliance and Toyota.

Hackers stole Jeeps in Texas using FCA's internal dealer software

Fri, Aug 5 2016

This article has been updated with details on how the thefts were carried out, and with comments from FCA. It seems the news regarding vehicle hacking continues to get worse, especially when it comes to products from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Last year, a Jeep Cherokee in St. Louis, Missouri, was wirelessly hacked from Pittsburgh. Nissan had to shut down its Leaf app because of vulnerabilities. Now, a pair of hackers in Houston, Texas, stole more than 30 Jeeps over a six-month period. The two were arrested by police last Friday while attempting to steal another vehicle. ABC 13 in Houston reports that police had been following Michael Arcee and Jesse Zelay for several months but were unable to catch them in the act until now. The two were using a laptop to connect to and start a vehicle. The thieves were able to access Fiat Chrysler's own DealerCONNECT software. After entering the vehicle identification number, the hackers were able to reprogram the cars' security systems to accept a generic key, according to The Houston Chronicle. Additionally, Automotive News reports that FCA subsequently updated the terms of use for its DealerCONNECT program. These thefts were not related to the UConnect remote hacks from last year.

It was this footage that first led the police to Arcee and Zelay. The police began to follow and record the pair. That investigation eventually led to Friday's arrest. Both are charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. In addition, Arcee is charged with felon in possession of a weapon and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. According to ABC 13, Homeland Security is investigating more than 100 stolen FCA vehicles that they believe were hacked using this method. After their theft, the vehicles were brought across the border to Mexico. FCA is currently conducting an internal investigation into the matter. After this article was posted, the company reached out to Autoblog, stating "FCA US takes the safety and security of its customers seriously and incorporates security features in its vehicles that help to reduce the risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications. FCA US has been cooperating with Houston Police Department since they first started the investigation.
